Location

When sorting our props, we were also thinking about the locations. It brought to our attention that we had to decide where we are going to shoot our thriller. This was because we were originally thinking as a group that we wanted to shoot our thriller in Cranleigh (a local village.) However to do this we would need to contact the police as we would be using toy guns and because, we want to spray them black to make them more realise, and the police maybe informed by the public. 

The next stage to do this is to contact the police to inform them that we are filming for our media A- level. But we need a written confirmation from the police and have that on set, so if the police did get in contact with us when filming, we could show that we have confirmation from them. 

Above is an image of a bank in Cranleigh, which we could use for filming our thriller. 

Now it has been made aware that we don't actually need to film our whole sequence outside the bank. This is because we only need to film robbers inside a van, police down alley ways and on a roof, all of which we are able to do at school. However, we will need to shoot a wide shot of the bank to insert so that the audience are able to know where the action is taking place and therefore establish the setting for the rest of the film. We are also going to try and get some already existing CCTV footage to include within our thriller.
